My Education :

1st standard to 2nd.

Yah..., even now I remember the day we shifted to Tiruvarur, the important city of Chola reign after Tanjore. I started my school life here. At this point, I have to tell something interesting happened, I had a friend nextdoor. I think his name is Govind.

He was studying in 3rd standard. Whenever he sees me he use to tell "Pathiya...nan moonanglass patikkiren..neee paru onnangclassthan patikkire"(see, I am studying 3rd standard, u r in just 1st standard). It irritated me like anything & ofcourse I started pesturing my Dad. So my Dad requested the headmaster to shift me to 2nd stndard. Since I knew 'A B C D' (something great for 1st standard becuse English is taught only from 3rd standard!!!) I got promoted to 2nd standard. So.. ..

3rd standard to 5th.

From 3rd to 5th I studied in a different school .(Veludayar school) I picked up somany friends...few of them after some initial fight. There is a temple nearby that school. Pretty old temple. Just opposite to my school was a 'Petty shop' - v called it as 'Nayina kadai'. He use to sell raw mangoes. So many times we have stolen the mangoes & shared them inside the temple. One share was always given to God!!!. Raw mangoes with salt ..Wah....

6th standard to 10th.

Then came another transfer to Kulitahlai. A small beautiful town on the banks of river Cauvery. This is the place where I want to settle down in my olden days(a dream!). I joined in 'Government Boys Higher Secondary School' in 6th stndard. I came out with flying 'Black & out' color in SSC (10th).

The Final Transfer.

The final transfer was to Trichy, where we have settled down, leaving my Dad to roam arround. I finished my HSC in Bishop Heber - Teppakkulam in 1987 & got selected in Mokmbigai College of Engineering. I finished my BE in Computer science in 1991. To be frank college life was not a cake walk for me. I really struggled to finish my degree with first class. I take this opportunity to thank all my friends who helped me in so many ways. I am very proud to tell that most of my college mates are now in abroad.

I started my career in Mumbai. After 6 long years I got the chance to enter the dreamland - USA.

My Interest.

Music.

I am very much interested in listening music. I am the fan of 'The Mastro Ilayaraja'. I like A.R Rahman also. But I feel personally that something is missing in his music!!!(Is it variety?!!!). Do not fight with me if you are a Rahman fan.

Travelling.

I like travelling. I want to see the whole world. I like the natural beauties. Hmm...little bit interest in photography also, did you see my collections?. What do u think?.

Timepass Reading.

I like reading books. My favourite writers are 'Sujatha', 'Balakumaran'(Wonderful writer), Sandilyan, Kalki (I could not finish Ponniyin Selvan..Hope Kamal will come out with that picture very soon).

Movies.

I am not a movie addict. Once in a while I see movies. In actors I like both Kamalahasan & Rajinikanth. In new commers Vijay is good. In actress I liked Revathy & also Sukanya. Now I have become a fan of 'Manisha'. Whav....Enna figure nayina ava!!!!

Cooking.

Other than that, I like Cooking.(Girls please Note!!). I have found some innovative, less time consuming ways to cook. For example, once I made Sambar & put the Rice in that & boiled. Greate ..Sambar Rice ready. (Only I ate that.....No one else touched!!!). The kitchen will be in mess after I cook. That is the only problem.

So...Life is going like this. I try to make life more interesting not only to me but also to others.
